Abstract

A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) of the island-type comprising a plurality of cluster-based Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs), whereby each of the cluster-based CLBs is surrounded by a global routing structure formed by a plurality of multiplexers and pass/transmission-gates organized in Switch Boxes (SBs) and Connection Blocks (CBs), the switch boxes and the connection blocks comprising at least a first plurality of resistive memories inserted in a data path of a first routing architecture of the switch boxes and the connection blocks. Each CLB contains Basic Logic Elements (BLEs), as well as local routing resources.

Field-programmable gate array

A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is an integrated circuit designed to be configured after manufacturing. The FPGA configuration is generally specified using a hardware description language (HDL), similar to that used for an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC). Circuit diagrams were previously used to specify the configuration, but this is increasingly rare due to the advent of electronic design automation tools. FPGAs contain an array of programmable logic blocks, and a hierarchy of reconfigurable interconnects allowing blocks to be wired together.

Routing

Routing is the process of selecting a path for traffic in a network or between or across multiple networks. Broadly, routing is performed in many types of networks, including circuit-switched networks, such as the public switched telephone network (PSTN), and computer networks, such as the Internet. In packet switching networks, routing is the higher-level decision making that directs network packets from their source toward their destination through intermediate network nodes by specific packet forwarding mechanisms.

Programmable Array Logic

Programmable Array Logic (PAL) is a family of programmable logic device semiconductors used to implement logic functions in digital circuits introduced by Monolithic Memories, Inc. (MMI) in March 1978. MMI obtained a registered trademark on the term PAL for use in "Programmable Semiconductor Logic Circuits". The trademark is currently held by Lattice Semiconductor. PAL devices consisted of a small PROM (programmable read-only memory) core and additional output logic used to implement particular desired logic functions with few components.
